| Introduction | Chig spent his early years in the unreality bubble of England's leafiest county, before moving to begin real life at the age of 18 in England's second city. He tries valiantly to speak Oxford English to cover up the fact that the Brum accent is catching up with him after 20 years. Chig has a really, really dull day job, which is beneath him, so he has to make do with a fantasy life at weekends, where he is a freelance reporter and photographer. He meets minor pop stars for 5 minutes at a time, then pretends they are his friends. His only real gratification in life is that some of the men he meets in gay clubs ask him to do their soft porn photo shoots. |

When you open your eyes underwater, do you ever worry that you'll drown?
No. Daft question. I try not to open my eyes underwater.
